have lamented a new and usegnl `@inid-Hydfsoea'rben Brimer; of which the llowing is a' specification.-

'lhef present invention relates to improveme'ntsi in timid h'yelroearbon brrrrrersz- The primary object ot this invention is the profusionl of novel' forni of burner, in which the fluidi hydrocarbon is supplied *eo diireel'ing Val-red nozzle' through a plurality tubes or pipes which' consti-tute the gasifing-A chan-rl?er, the sinne being disposed to be hea-teil by the llame from' the burner or 'jet tube, there being mounted upon such burner or jet nube,- a retieeting means whereby the fienile troni the'jet is directed to the desired location upon the' top of the Stove' or cari fing: of the bmnen'so that the. heat- A, may be centralized upon' the' object desired te be heated.

Vlith the foregoing :rnd other objects inf View which will appear asy the' description proceeds,- the' invention resides:- in the eembination and arrangement of penesv and in the' det-aile ell consti-'nation hereinafter described and cleimed, uit bei-ng understood that changes in` the. precise embodiment of the'invention herein disclosed' can be made within' the scope what is claimed' Without (,leparting: llron' the spirit of the'irwentien.

lnV the drawings Figure l is a longitudinal sectional' View through the casing carrying the burner with tlie.' reflector' shown partly in section, there being` means' shown diagrainniaticully for supplying thellu'id hydrocarbon under pressure' to' the burner. Fig. 2 is an end elevation taken from the nozzle side of the burner. Fig,- 3 ie a seiction taken on the line of Fig. l. Fig. Ll is a diagranunalie plan 'view of the oil conductingronduit, the seine being broken away to reduce the longitudinal length of the View.

Referring to the drawings, the. numeral l designates the oil or luid hydrocarbon sul'lplyingr tank which has eir supplied thereto through the pump 2, 'there bin a Conduit 2 led away trom the tank :ear the lower end thereof to supply #he oi to the inlet tube 3 of the gasifying iipes A 5 and f3, there preferably beiner three of these pipes,- dsposed in parallel relation and in communication with each other; These pipes as clearly.'y shown :rre mounted the upper portion oi' the i3 which may constitute a utensil support for the utensils to be heated or will constitute a casing to be disposed wit-hin' the lire box ot :inv Jform ol? stove or yfurnace. u

' Re .fertieallyx disposed tube or pipe 'l is led from the ges' Ying pipe t3` and has connected th'ereto,the casing S- controlled by the needle ifa-h@ 9 se' tha- .the gas or heated oil may be supplied through the nozzle l@ across thev space betweenthe open mouth of the burner tube il into sueh burner tube. This burner y n. f. i

tribe il es clearly shown r 'r ig. l is disposedlongltudnieluf or. the casing is mount# ed rn the respective end' Walle.ther-effi,4 being.

- held inl place by rneane or' the brackets o1* soeleets The ruiter end ol? 'the' tube il' is seeded as at e' sol that the gas is directedl-ron-zgflr the petrole-tions of the; til-be. Bjr' this' ineens it will' be seerr thahtlfleintrodvmo tien of the gee efr heated oil into the openend of the burner tube il will drawthereI withinthe necessary amount.- o a-ii from the surrouinling atmosphere so', as to' produce a; blue tlaline through? the jet tube or apertures' of the burner'll and Withinrthe' casing. 13; The burner il as clearly shownI is disposed below and heating` relation' to 'the gaeifying pipes 4', and o, and as' hereinA shown directly below, although it* is apparent that the. saine may be to one Side but` still-lbe within the casing 13, the arrangement being varied accordi-ng to the intensity or tfhe heat upon the pipes 4, 5 and G.

ln order to' provide a' means for direcling the Haines from the burner tube ll', to va'- riouls` portionsof the open portion ot the' casing' 13, u plurality of brackets il are'ro- Statably mounted upon the lube ll beyond the periorated portion thereof and these brackets il cach are secured to and carry the longitudinally disposed and concaved reflector or plate, l5, which normally will assume the position as shown in Fig- 3, the it between the baelrets i4 and the tube ll, however, being comparatively tight7 so that the member l5 may be i'noved to any angular position with the Lube ll ns its :misand be retained in such position by the friction of the bracket@ upon the tube.

ln order to properly manipulate the concaved plate l5 to assume any ofthe necessary posit-ions, with relation to the burner tube 11, a handle or pin 16 is connected to one end of the curved plate or reflector 15 and is projected through the arcshaped slot 17 formed in the end Wall of the casing 13 and in ready acccess to the operator.

In order to provide a priming means to heat the casing 8, at the initial starting of the burner, a drip cup 18 is carried by the casing 8 and in this is poured 'the necessary priming fluid, such as gasolene, or alcohol, to be ignited and thus heat the casing 8 before the introduction ofthe oil from the gasifying pipes 4, 5 and 6 into the casing and the initial introduction of the gas into the open end of the burner tube 11. After such introduction, the gas is ignited from the jets of the tube 11, and the flame is directed to heat the gasifying Apipes 4f, 5 and 6, so that the oil contained therein will be heated to the necessary temperature to gasify and being under pressure due to the air supplied to the tank l, a continuous supply of' gas will be the result in the tube 11 and as the nozzle 10 is in spaced relation to the inlet end of the burner tube 11,'tho necessary air is injected into tube 11 for supplying the desired amo'unt of oxygen to the gas. 1t is also evident that by reason of the reflector or curved plate 15, that the heat from the flames may be directed or concentrated Where desired forproducing the necessary result in any form of stove, or upon utensils When the casing 13 constitutes a stove casing for cooking and other purposes.

XV hat is claimed is: u

1. In a fluid hydrocarbon burner, a supporting casing, a gasifying coil disposed therein, a burner tube disposed in said lasing below the ga'sifying coil, a longitudinally disposed reflector plate mounted within the casing upon the burner tube for swinging movement, and vmanually controlled means connected to the reflector plato and operable exteriorly of the caQing for rotating 'the plate relatively to the burner tube. s 4

2. In a fluid hydrocarbon burning apparatus, a supporting casing, a plurality of gasifying conduits located therein, a gas difor gasifying conduits located therein, a valve easing having a gas directing nozzle eonnected to receive the gas from the gasifying conduits, a longitudinally disposed burner tube mounted in the casing and having an open inlet end disposed exteriorly of the casing with the nozzle concentrically thereof and in spaced relation thereto, a pair of brackets rotatably mounted upon the tube, a curved reflector plate carried by said brackets, and means connected tothe plate and operable cxteriorly of the casing for rotating the plate relatively to the burner tube.

f1. In a fluid hydrocarbon burning apparatus, a plurality of gasifying conduits, a valve controlled gas supplying nozz e connected thereto, a longitudinally disposed burner tube disposed to receive the gas from the nozzle and'in heating relation to the gasifying conduits, a plurality of brackets rotatably mounted upon the burner tube Within the casing, a curved plate carried by said brackets and in reflecting relation to thc burner tube, and a handle for operating said plate connected to the plate and projecting exteriorly of the casing.

In testimony that We claim the foregoing as our own, We have hereto aliXed our signatures in the presence of two Witnesses.
